LETTERS – Green’s highest vote

On behalf of the Green Party’s candidates in this year’s district council elections, I would like to thank all those Spalding residents who showed faith in us by giving us their vote.

We may not have been successful in terms of winning seats, but we received our highest ever vote and a great deal of goodwill on the doorstep.

The diversity of our candidates, many of whom were young and two of whom were from the Eastern European community, shows we are able to appeal beyond the boundaries of other parties.

With the twin global threats of irreversible climate change and mass species extinction now on our front pages every day, the need for a strong Green voice has never been greater.

Here in South Holland we will continue to campaign and to make our message heard.

In four years’ time, when the next district council elections take place, we will be even stronger.
